Weather Notes

  • The colors of the sunrise have changed with the cooler temperatures
  • In summer the sunrise was peach and gold behind the green leafy trees
  • In early autumn the sky is silver and gray behind the leafy green
  • By the middle of the 3rd week the seasonal shift was firmly entrenched, which meant it was time to change our routines.
    • Switching most of the cooking from the summer kitchen to indoors.
    • Switching garden work to the afternoon and doing indoor projects in the morning
    • Migrating Canada geese and hawks. The geese are no problem but we’ve had at least one hawk keen on trying to catch our chickens.
    • Flannel sheets on the bed!
    • An extra blanket on the bed.
    • Soup season has begun.
    • And of course, the first wood fire of the season.

    Getting close to the last of the summer produce as frost could be at any time now.
    Greens galore: kale, Swiss chard, and collards
    We’ve been picking up pecans here and there, but after this week’s 
    wind and rain, pecans have be easy picking by the bucketful.

    Our sweet potato winter squash have been somewhat disappointing.
    They were late to develop and haven’t gotten very big. We only got 8.

    This one wasn’t completely matured so it was selected for eating
    earlier than the cured ones. We all get some: goats, chickens, and us.

    That’s about it for me. First frost any day now! How about you?
